My professional activities are guided by a strong personal sense of responsibility to my clients. It is my goal to help families realize their dream of home ownership, provide investors with guidance on their portfolio purchases, and assist the luxury home buyer with custom loan options. I love making that ultimate dream home a possibility. I strive to make myself available to my clients and guide them through their loan process. My goal is to educate my clients, making them to feel confident, and secure with their financial decision. I began working in mortgage lending in 1998. Loan programs were abundant, which required me to absorb a lot of information, guidelines, and procedures so I could best serve my clients. I became very proficient at the technical workings of the mortgage industry. In 2001 my husband and I founded our own mortgage company. We grew our business & helped groom, and developed several loan officers prior to selling our business in 2006. I went from small business owner to big bank loan officer in 2006. During this time I also acquired my underwriting license. Being an underwriter gave me a unique skill set that allowed me to give my clients unparalleled customer service. As time went by, I felt the need to be at a smaller more nimble bank that was more in touch with clients wants and needs, so, in April of 2013 I made the move to HomeStreet Bank. I am very excited to be working for a community bank that has a long history of being a strong local lender and partner within our community. I feel that my journey has placed me in the right place, with the right skill set, to support, & serve my clients.
